NOVEMBER BOOK OF THE MONTH
Book: Drawn Together
Author: Minh Lê
Drawn Together tells the story of a young boy who visits his Thai grandfather and struggles to communicate with him due to a language barrier. The grandfather only speaks Thai and watches Thai TV, so the boy becomes bored and starts drawing. When they sit down to draw together, they discover a deep connection through their shared love of art and storytelling, forming a bond that goes beyond words. This book celebrates art as a connection between generations and cultures.
